A new trailer from Battlefield 3 shown today at Gamescom features 64-player combat on the Caspian border multiplayer map in DICE's upcoming military shooter sequel. The clip has some vehicular action and finally shows off some jet combat from the game. The embedded version follows.

I think they won't have a choice but to work on the joystick support. With BFBC2 you could mouse and keyboard pilot the helicopters at an adequate level, if not a skilled one. But jets are another story, a mouse and keyboard just isn't going to cut it.

Hopefully the PC beta will feature a 64 player conquest map with jets. I don't want to see the rage that will ensue if it's another 32 player infantry map.
